1. Plunge ‘V’ Neck Brocade Lehenga Blouse
While brocade Banarasi sarees have made a major comeback, thanks to designers like Gaurang Shah and Sabyasachi, brocade dupattas and lehengas come a close second. Give this whimsical full blown brocade lehenga a shot. It has a deep plunged V neckline, which is very uncommon.

Off-shoulders have taken over both traditional and contemporary clotheslines. From one-piece dresses to salwar suits, blouses to T-shirts, they are everywhere.

5. Crop Top Choli With Off-Shoulder Sleeves
It is a preconceived notion and a very wrong one that the urban Indian woman does not indulge in traditional clothing and chooses western over Indian attire.

You could also use this with a saree or wear it with other lehengas.

Long blouses can also incorporate traditional motifs and handiwork like zari, giving the outfit a majestic and timeless appeal.
The beauty of these blouses is that you can pair them with sarees or lehengas, even western wear, and they stun! You can also get them custom designed! Himanshi Mukhija, a blogger, shared how she designed her own wedding lehenga blouse. She went for a cold shoulder blouse to add a modern element to her traditional outfit. She writes, “Bringing a cold shoulder to ethnics is something that I thought would look cool so, check on that.
